A typical day

I love going for walks, hikes, and runs with more active pets, but can be easily persuaded to stay in and give some love to those who aren’t as active :)

Quality care when you’re not there!

Pet care experience

I have grown up in a household that is rare to not have a dog in it. Because of this, I have spent most of my life taking care of the dogs as a normal part of my day. From feeding them to walking and bathing, and taking care of them as the recover from medical procedures. Not only that, but I have been given the opportunity by friends and neighbors to dog sit for them while they out of town on a multitude of occasions. The variety of dogs that I have taken care has gone all over the place, from a singular Pomeranian to three energetic border collies.

Kara did an amazing job taking care of our pets while we were away! She is very responsive, and sent pictures and updates while she was pet sitting. She did everything we asked and more!

I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved dog and cat to Kara, and I am delighted to share my positive experience. From the moment I booked with Kara to the end, every aspect of the process was seamless and exceeded my expectations. First and foremost, communication with her was outstanding. She was prompt in responding to my initial inquiry, and was quick and thorough in answering my questions. It was evident that she prioritizes clear and transparent communication, which created a sense of trust and reassurance for me. Upon meeting Kara, it was apparent that she has a genuine love for animals. She connected instantly with both my dog and cat. I knew they would be in good hands while I was away. I greatly appreciated her attention to detail, such as sending me updates with pictures of my dog fetching his favorite ball and of my cat curled up and content next to her on the couch. One aspect that stood out to me was Kara's commitment to adhering to my specific instructions for the dog's walks and treats, keeping him on track with his training. My experience with Kara was outstanding, and I wholeheartedly recommend her services to fellow pet owners. She will be my first choice for future bookings. Thank you, Rover, for introducing such a fantastic addition to your network of pet care providers.
